Is there anyway to stop FaceID from popping up every single time in need a web based password? It gets so irritating. I just want to click on it and have it fill like previously did with out having to scan my face twice, error out both times, just to have to type in my pin. Happens every time, I’ve reset FaceID 10+ times and it probably only gets me about 30% of the time. Just super frustrated and miss Touch ID because of it.

Just disable FaceID entirely and use a passcode for everything. Sure it's more of a hassle, but continual FaceID fails is more aggravating than just entering a passcode--

Or get an iPhone 8

If a stranger gets a hold of your phone (while it is unlocked) you may regret turning off your security.

There’s nothing in my life that interesting if they want to log-into my checking account they aren’t going to find much lol but on a serious note I get what you’re saying, and I will be turning it on while out for the day and off at home as I rarely access anything with a password out and about.
